I had no prior experience or any training on this topic. Just about everything that Angela taught was new to me. She discussed the process of coming up with a business name, the necessary forms and costs, product sources, things to consider with pricing and business location, and more! She was methodical and detailed. She shared her experiences and pitfalls, and answered our questions. This is a very beneficial and foundational class for those who would like, or just curious, to start a sewing/crafting business. Much of the information can be applied to any business startup. I am Very Happy that I attended this class. Thanks so much, Angela!
